I knew Conan was funny but his shows seemed mostly scripted. Watching him say funny crap off the top of his head on his podcast just proves what a gift he has. I love it.

His remote sketches during Late Night/The Tonight Show/CONAN are a better representation of how genuinely funny the man is. Send him out on the streets or to an event and have him riff with a passerby and you can instantly tell how he can just shoot out instant comedy. No need for a writing crew just his quick wit.

To learn a whole Beethoven sonata in two evenings is absolutely incredible. I've been playing the piano for many years and I'd be very pleased with myself if I'd learn a single movement in that time.

Conan doesn't or maybe does realize that his non stop comedy brain is a much bigger and rarer talent than people who get music. He is literally a one in a billion

@@Tommyr 8/18/23 Yeah but too bad psycho Bill Cosby bought the rights to many lLittle Rascal films then took them out of circulation because Cosby said they were racist! They weren’t racist! Stymie and the other black kids were just part of the gang of crazy kids, white or black! Maybe that “Yum yum eat ‘em up” black African native film got Cosby upset , or the wide-eyed black face look you see on the kids, but this stuff is harmless. The white kids also had the wide-eye expressions too. So Cosby the serial rapist takes away all that brilliant humor from the Little Rascals away from the public.

I play piano after class at my school; I sneak down into the music dept and get into a practice room. I've learned the dept's patterns and I'm not disturbing any students. But it just makes me so happy to be able to play again.

I love that Rivers' intro into playing music is the same intro he gave me to playing music: look at that guy. He's so cool, but he's also like me. I could maybe do this.

1.) we need videos of every guest lmao, in entirety! 2.) this was beyond fantastic.

I've been playing drums since I was 4. Got a degree in music. Have been a touring drummer ever since and have played all over the world. But I would love to be even remotely as talented as Conan O'Brian. Or hell.....as talented as Rivers Cuomo who's freak of nature talented. We all have our lanes.

that's a good question. I think his mother Beverly was looking outside of the hospital room and saw or heard the river outside, and it just came to her. his father claims he was named after a soccer player.

Hey Matt: The Little Rascal's Weezer, best friend of Porky, preceded Froggy.

Rivers saying "hmm?" when Conan is talking about not being able to just play things he hears. It's like he's saying 'weird, I didn't know people couldn't just do it'.

I wonder if Rivers listens to Opeth.

Gorillaz' Damon and Jaimie on the podcast next pls 🥺🤞

Maybe I am just a nerd but Rivers has got to be the coolest dude. He acts the part but hand him a piece of wood with strings and he will take your head off
